Van Bronckhorst Rangers future LIVE as Ally McCoist outlines biggest problem facing Dutchman
dailyrecord.co.ukGio van Bronckhorst is in a fight for his Rangers job after losing 2-1 to St Johnstone on Sunday.The Light Blues went down 2-1 after goals from James Brown and ex-Ger Nicky Clark meant that James' Tavernier's strike wasn't enough to take anything from Perth and saw them fall seven points adrift of leaders Celtic.That's piled the pressure on van Bronckhorst, who lost on the back of his team becoming the worst to ever take part in the Champions League group stage after six heavy defeats home and away to Napoli, Liverpool and Ajax.The one saving grace for van Bronckhorst is that the next game is only on Wednesday when Hearts visit Ibrox.
The quick turnaround means that a change in the dugout before then is unlikely.But a poor result against the Jambos, who beat Motherwell with ten men just after their next opponents had lost in Perth, would be the final nail in the coffin.Why Rangers aren't hitting the same heights as last season is siple, according to Ally McCoist.They;ve utterly failed to replace the quality players they lost in the summer and are struggling to compete at anywhere near the same level.And McCoist has poited out the 'typical Celtic' trait that sets the rivals apart as he shares fan concerns that gap could get bigger.Ally McCoist was on co-commentary duty at McDiarmid Park on Sunday.
He's been reflecting on the defeat and gave his assessment to TalkSport:Do I need to? I wa sup at the game yesterday and the first thing I've got to say; two unbelievable goals from St Johsntone.
I don't even mean good, I mean brilliant.That said, Callum's team were really organised but if I told the domination from Rangers, it was absolutely ridiculous.
